Can i work in an animal shelter without any qualifications or experience?
When I volunteered at my local animal shelter it was really fun. They had me walk dogs up and down the hill by the animal shelter. They also had me play with the kittens and cats. It was fun to pet like 30 cats at once. This shelter had mostly all of the cats together though, which isn’t usual. All the other animal shelters I was ever at had the cats separate. In a lot of shelters that keep the cats separate, they need people to pet and pay attention to each cat. That way the cats can get some personal attention that regular staff may not have time to give them. It all depends on which kind of volunteer you are. You can expect to do anything from cleaning litter boxes out to sorting donations…and everything in between. All the animals need food, water, and to have their dishes washed, to have their waste cleaned up, to get attention and so on. I think it’s great that you are going to give some of your time to an animal shelter. It will make a big difference in the life of those anima
